5. Carefully slide the piston spacer onto the rod.
6. If applicable, correctly place a new o-ring and back-
up rings in the inner piston diameter groove.
7. Using suitable protection, clamp the cylinder rod in
a vise or similar holding fixture as close to the piston
as possible.
8. Carefully thread the piston on the cylinder rod hand
tight, ensuring that the o-ring and back-up rings are
not damaged or dislodged.
9. Thread the piston onto the rod until it abuts the
spacer end and install the tapered bushing.
NOTE: When installing the tapered bushing, the piston and
mating end of the rod must be free of oil.
WHEN REBUILDING THE LIFT CYLINDER, APPLY LOCTITE #242
